In this context, we’re proud to announce that Pondurance has won the "Healthcare Cybersecurity Industry Solution" award at the 2025 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards for our commitment to protecting sensitive health information! cybersecurity-excellence-awards.com/candidates/p...

Advanced cybersecurity solutions, like MDR services, play a key role in safeguarding patient information and minimizing breach risks.Effective cybersecurity measures must integrate technology, processes, and skilled personnel to create a strong defense against evolving threats.

Regular security risk assessments and compliance audits are essential for identifying vulnerabilities and meeting healthcare regulations. Budget constraints and a lack of skilled cybersecurity professionals challenge many mid-sized healthcare organizations. www.pondurance.com/blog/human-f...

Protected health information (PHI) must be secured to ensure compliance with HIPAA and HITECH regulations, which are essential for protecting patient data. www.pondurance.com/blog/white-h...

The interview concluded with insights on the continuous rise in cyber threats. Doug emphasized that organizations must stay vigilant. He also mentioned how emerging cyber insurance standards require firms to adopt better security practices, with Pondurance assisting clients in navigating compliance.

Doug also discussed the future of Digital Forensics and Incident Response (DFIR), outlining two main growth paths: strategic expansion leading to exit or consolidation. He believes that consolidation may drive innovation and efficiency, enhancing overall cybersecurity offerings.

The conversation highlighted the importance of proactive cybersecurity measures. Doug noted that Pondurance integrates threat intelligence feeds with machine learning within its Managed Detection and Response (MDR) platform, automating responses and enhancing threat management.

Pondurance is harnessing AI and adaptive learning technologies to anticipate and respond to threats swiftly. This proactive approach improves incident response times and helps organizations defend against attacks before they escalate.

Doug emphasized the significant role of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) in today's cybersecurity environment. While AI presents challenges by enabling faster and more sophisticated attacks, it also offers opportunities for innovation in security measures.

A critical point made by Doug is how geopolitical disconnects are creating a fertile environment for cybercriminals. This situation has notably increased the prevalence of Business Email Compromise (BEC) attacks, as hackers increasingly collaborate, making traditional defenses less effective.

In today’s escalating threat landscape, staying informed is critical. Join cybersecurity experts Niloo Razi Howe and Ron Pelletier on Feb 28 at 2 PM EST for an essential discussion on selecting the right MDR solutions. www.brighttalk.com/webcast/2036...

Investing in MDR can lower breach costs by up to 60%. In today’s complex threat landscape, leveraging MDR significantly enhances your security framework and protects vital assets.

Alarmingly, 47% of companies faced ransomware attacks last year, with recovery costs averaging $2.88 million for mid-sized organizations. With 80% of data breaches involving cloud data, the need for Managed Detection and Response is vital.
